Answer:
1. Continental-continental convergence are both <em>continental crust</em> plates.
2. Buoyancy basically means these plates are light float on top of the Asthenosphere.
Explanation:
1. To go a little more into detail, this type of convergence ocurrs when two plates made of continental crust (not oceanic) collide. In the case of ocean-continent convergence, the denser oceanic crust sinks underneath the lighter continental crust.
In this scenario, we have two plates, neither of which want to sink, so instead of going down they just crumple and fold and keep colliding. This collision creates very high mountain ranges such as the Himalaya and usually doesn't contain any volcanic activity because no magma is capable of penetrating through so much crustal material.
2. As for why continental crust is buoyant and doesn't sink has much to do with its composition. Continental crust is made mostly of silicate material. This is very different from oceanic crust which is made of basaltic rocks and is therefore heavier. The term buoyancy refers to the 'floating action' of the continental crust on top of the uppermost mantle.
Answer:
1) if mother nature pressures a species to evolve they will not evolve right therefore they past on to their offspring and the they die.
2)mass extinction occurs when something BIG happens take dinosaures for ex they were wiped out by something HUGE this was all proving by sci because of the fossils
3) the meteor (i think)
4) i don't know
Explanation:
sorry if I am wrong for any of these
have a nice day
Answer:
spring
Explanation:
A spring forms where the water table intersects the ground surface. Sometimes, the ground surface is lower than the water table. This forms a natural water flow as a spring.
- An artesian well occurs where pressurized formations containing ground water is found.
- Unsaturated zone is not filled with ground water.
- An aquifer is a porous and permeable formation that can store ground water
